Fifth Bridge of Béja, Railway bridge in Beja Governorate, Tunisia.

The Fifth Bridge extends 350 meters across the valley, reaching a height of 38 meters with twelve stone arches supporting the railway tracks.

The construction of this railway bridge took place between 1912 and 1915, connecting Beja with other major cities in northern Tunisia.

The bridge represents an important element of Tunisia's transportation infrastructure, facilitating the movement of people and goods across the fertile Beja region.

Trains continue to operate daily on this bridge, providing regular connections between Beja and the capital city of Tunis for passengers and freight.

The structure received its name from the 5th Engineering Regiment, which managed the construction of the railway line through this challenging terrain.
